Beginning in October, more than 13,000 McDonald's restaurants in America will use a new ki

nd of cooking oil. McDonald's aims to make its French fries and other fried foods healthier.

The change will not affect the taste or the number of calories in the food. But by changing the cooking oil, McDonald's says, it hopes to cut by nearly half the amount of trans-fatty acids(转换脂肪酸) in French fries and reduce the amount of saturated fats(饱和脂肪) by 16 percent. Scientists believe that trans-fatty acids and saturated fats raise cholesterol(胆固醇) levels and increase the risk of heart disease.

McDonald's new step is important because McDonald's is an industry leader and other fast-food chains and food processors may follow the lead.

For McDonald's, the action comes at a time when Americans are becoming more and more concerned about; obesity(肥胖) is an increasing pressure on food companies to offer healthy food to consumers.

After three years of study, McDonald's officials say they are switching oil that is lower in saturated fats and trans-fatty acids. McDonald's says the change will not cause higher coats for consumers.

Though there is some change, scientists say that the amount of trans-fat in foods at McDonald's and at other fast-food companies is still important.

The main idea of the text is ______.

A．McDonald's is a pioneer in food products

B．McDonald's is enlarging its restaurants in the world

C．fried foods can't keep up with the development of moden society

D．McDonald's is to use new cooking oil

听力原文： Since the beginning of history, people on the earth have always watched the sky and wondered about the things they saw. As centuries of discoveries flew by, it became obvious that humans would not be content to just gaze at the solar system. We wanted to fly into it and explore it as well.

Once again, technology allowed us to accomplish our goal. (33)On October 4, 1957. a Soviet rocket sent the first man-made satellite into space. It was called Sputnik, the Russian word for "traveler". Even though Sputnik was nothing more than a small aluminum ball with a radio inside, it started a whole new era of space exploration.

In May 1961 President John F. Kennedy challenged American scientists to land a person on the moon before the end of the 1960s. (34)In the quest to do this, scientists faced many obstacles. For example, to get a spaceship all the way to the moon and back would demand a rocket engine powerful enough to make the trip. (35)Scientists realized that it would be difficult for one heavy rocket loaded with fuel to reach the moon. Instead, they decided to use a multistage rocket. When the fuel in one stage of the multistage rocket is used up, that stage will fall away. This makes the rocket lighter, and the engine of the next stage can go on providing power and thrust the rocket even faster and higher. As you know, Americans successfully landed on the moon in July 1969. Since then our knowledge of the solar system has increased dramatically.

(34)

A．The Russian name for the spacecraft means "traveler".

B．It was launched toward the end of the 1950s.

C．It was resulted from Soviet and American scientists.

D．The spacecraft was a small aluminum ball fitted with a radio.

FAX TRANSMISSION

TO: Dorothy Yost

FROM: Ramon Rivera

DATE: October 15

RE: Workshop

As you know, sales have plummeted over the past few months due to the current recession. We are going to have to make a concerted effort to pull our company out of its slump. I'm confident that we are able to boost sales to their previous level. I feel that this is a good time to have a workshop.

It's my desire that the workshop will afford us an opportunity to rethink some of our sales strategies and develop a concrete plan for boosting sales. I've asked Ms. Linda Davis to conduct a workshop for us. You may remember Ms. Linda Davis. She conducted a workshop for the sales department a few years ago. She's a dynamic speaker.

The theme of the workshop will be marketing and product development. It will be held in the Blue Room on December 20 from 9:00 A.M. to 4:00 RM. Lunch will be provided. Ms. Linda Davis is preparing handouts. The handouts will be distributed at the workshop.

However, I'll send them to you at the beginning of December so that you can know what will be going on at the workshop. Please take a look at them before December 20. If you have any particular topics that you would like Ms. Linda Davis to address, please let me know.

Subject: Workshop

Dear Mr. Ramon Rivera,

I' m looking forward to the workshop. I remember meeting Ms. Linda Davis.

If my memory serves me right, she lives in Los Angeles. Will she fly back to Los Angeles on December 21 after the workshop？ It would be great if we could go out to dinner with her after the workshop and pick her brains about the best strategies for marketing.

I' 11 be out of the country on business for about one week in early December, but I can look at the handouts after I get back. There are some topics that I would like to see addressed at the workshop, but I' 11 wait until I' ve seen the handouts. Ms. Linda Davis may be planning to discuss the topics.

Regards,

Dorothy Yost

The Present Recession Affects Women More Than MenIf men were the first to lose their jobs

The Present Recession Affects Women More Than Men

If men were the first to lose their jobs in the heart of the economic crisis in the United States, a study now shows a trend, women, (21) mothers today, are suffering the collateral effects, while the American economy is back on the road to growth.

According to a report by the Joint Economic Committee of American Congress, American men were the most affected at the beginning of the crisis as over- (22) in most key sectors such as building and industry. Today, they are finding jobs, unlike women and especially single mothers. Between October 2009 and March 2010, women have lost 22,000 jobs while men have found 260,000 jobs, a (23) by that Committee. According to the chairwoman of this Committee, Democrat Carolyn Maloney, the conclusions of the survey show that single women were particularly affected, with an (24) rate that (25) from 8 percent to 13.6 percent between the year 2007 to 2009.

(26) one third of jobs destroyed during the current recession were (27) by women, said Ms. Maloney. For example, it was discovered that during (28) recessions, this percentage was lower: Women have been affected by 15 percent of job losses during the recession of 2001. While women are losing more jobs, their families are more (29) on women incomes, said Carolyn Maloney.

In 2009, 3.3 million women worked part time for (30) reasons, the report said. Either because they had not found a full-time employment or their working hours had been reduced to part time.

So let's all hope that this trend will change soon and that the economy gets better soon in America for women as well as for men.
